About

Hey Medic refers to a series of memes in which various Team Fortress 2 classes ask Medic about various artists, games, films and pop culture phenomena, with Medic usually proceeding to disparage them and mock their titles. The trend originated from a dubbed Reddit meme in September 2019 and gained significant popularity online in January 2020.

Origin

On July 11th, 2019, Redditor[1] namenotrick made a comment expressing their dislike for the K-Pop industry and accusing it of using predatory practices in /r/tf2shitposterclub subreddit, with the comment, gaining 130 upvotes. On July 19th, 2019, Redditor[2] dabsallovar posted a four-panel meme depicting a humorous exchange between Team Fortress 2 classes Medic and Scout based on the comment (shown below). The post received over 2,700 upvotes in six months. One of the panels of the meme utilized an /r/arabfunny-style[12] edit of Scout's face. The edit was a part of previously existing /r/tf2shitposting[3] trend of four-panel ironic memes based on exchanges between various Team Fortress 2 characters.

hey medic i like kpop kpop more like kpoop medic and We joke, but K-pop is an extremely disgusting industry. It exploits artists even more so u/namenotrick say than American music industries. I remember watching a documentary about the contracts They make people follow, and how they have camps for like 8 year olds to see who they can manipulate into being a star. And the music itself is pretty much brainwashing people into being happy with their mundane, shirty lives. F--- K-pop, and f--- the keebs who worship it.

On September 17th, 2019, Twitter[4] user @little_paisano posted a dubbed version of the meme, with the video receiving over 31,500 views and the tweet receiving over 1,400 retweets and 3,900 likes (shown below).

- Hey Medic, I like K-pop!
- K-pop? More like K-poop!

In the following weeks, @little_paisano's dub was widely circulated online with reposts on Instagram, iFunny and YouTube. For example, a September 23rd, 2019, reupload by YouTube[5] user Blaziken. :d received over 396,100 views in four months. On December 7th, 2019, YouTuber[6] HiitsAris posted a Source Filmmaker remake of the video (shown below). The remake received over 331,200 views in one month.

On December 8th, 2019, Facebook[7] user Carson MacIntosh posted the first known derivative of the format to TF2 Shitposting Facebook group, with Demoman and Medic having an exchange about Hazbin Hotel. December 19th, 2019, Twitter[8] user @SumBod3 reuploaded the meme, with the reupload accumulating over 15,700 views in one month (shown below).

On December 19th, 2019, @little_paisiano[9] posted another Hey Medic dub about Super Smash Bros. Melee. The video accumulated over 45,800 views in one month, while @little_paisiano[10][11] posted more dubs in the following days.

Starting in mid-December 2019, the format gained further spread on Twitter and Reddit, with both image memes and dubbed videos, including wholesome examples, being posted by users on both platforms. A number of YouTube compilations of the memes were also uploaded during that period.

Various Examples

Disney Channel More ike Disney camel Hey medic I ke Disney Channel
hazbin hotel more like hazbin homotel Bounjour medic! I've taken quite the liking to this "Hazbin Hotel" cartoon First of all, while I do admit the comedy of the show can be a little repetitive and grating, you must remember that it is nonetheless an independent pilot that has an indisputable level of sincere talent and passion, and theres still time for it to improve on what you didn't like about it. Second of all, I don't know how many layers of unfunny ironic detachment you're on, but I fail to see what that banal remark was supposed to accomplish, seeing as homosexuality is hardly tab00 these days. Besides medic, you're one to talk, seeing as you and the heavy are obstensibly an item yourselves.
Hey, Medic, I'm JoJo! No, you are Elvis Presley. [ MENACING ] Cpt. Sourcebird
